Ratings & Reviews for Cafe 10 -Cup Programmable Residential Drip coffee maker with Automatic Shut-Off ( Stainless Steel )

Great addition to the kitchen

This coffee maker is perfect for our family. The stainless steel matches with the other appliances & the coffee brewing is quick. Having the coffee stay warm up to 2hrs is a bonus!

The perfect coffee maker

We have the café refrigerator and decided to purchase the Cafe coffee maker. Both of these products are exceptional. The Cafe Coffee coffee maker brews coffee perfectly every time… I get many compliments on the look of it and it’s very easy to clean. The copper accent on the handle is a nice classy look in the kitchen.

Not reliable

We bought this coffee maker in early 2024 and have issues almost the entire time we have had it. It started when the machine prompted us to descale, which we did. The descale sign never went away and has flashed for 2 years straight. Then the button went out and would not allow us to smoothly scroll to change time, cups, strength, etc. It would bounce around: for example, trying to set the time from 7AM to 4:30AM, the hours would go from 7 to 9 to 2 to 5 and eventually land on 4. Then two days...

Pretty, but probably won’t buy again…

It’s pretty…BUT it’s almost entirely cheap plastic. It requires so much cleaning otherwise the white will stain. When it inevitably breaks, I will not buy again.

Ugh!

Just switched to "bold setting" to see if the taste is better. Have been using moderate. I had to call to find out how to turn the pot off. The water reservoir does not always fully empty after brewing. Overall it looks a lot better than it delivers. Would not purchase again. Do not want to go thru a return process.

Poor Brew

So far a bit disappointed with the brewing. I like strong coffee and have set it to strong and raised the temperature but it still does not brew to the strength that comes close to the Mr. Coffee we use from time to time or the Kitchenaide. The opening of the carafe is also a bit small and difficult to get your hand and sponge in to clean it properly. Other than that it is sleek and looks great on the counter. But if we can’t get stringer brew, we may just have to return it or chnage it out.

My Cafe Appliance Kitchen

I purchased the stainless steel Cafe speciality drip coffee maker and have been pleased with it. It compliments my Cafe appliances and looks good on the counter.

not worth the money

I have had 2 of this coffee maker in less than 2 years. 1st one quit brewing within 6 months. It was still under warranty so it was replaced. 2nd one quit brewing in less than a year. Couldn't get GE to service it. I do not recommend this coffee maker!

Beautiful and Delicious

I love this coffee pot! It has four different brew strengths and holds 20 cups of coffee! I love how put together my kitchen feels with the matching big and little appliances!

Beautiful

Beautiful coffee maker A great compliment to our kitchen

Looks great

The coffee maker is stunning, looks great on my counter. I just wish it was easier to use. I am using the app because I can’t figure it out any other way.

Love this coffee pot!

Love this coffee pot! Brews quickly and quietly. East to clean.

Excellent coffee maker.

Makes a great pot of coffee.Looks great on my counter top. Only holds 10 cups, but my morning coffee is more flavorful than with my old coffee machine. Not sure if it’s the reusable filter or the temperature that it’s brewed at, but definitely a better cup of coffee.

Looks great, doesn't last

The machine is beautiful, and at first it brews amazing coffee, but as many have posted, it is not durable. The paint is flaking now after 2 years, the coffee does not taste good anymore. There is a strange flavor to it now.

Poor quality materials

The carafe itself is made of poor quality. Not only did the white stain almost immediately, but the metal material is peeling off, and I’ve had it a year.

Expected More

I expected so much more from a coffee maker at this price point. There are a few display defects. The control panel has black defect lines on the side. The Brew button is twisted and not centered. The coffee filter does not fully filter out coffee grounds. It’s a beautiful machine but very disappointed

Nice addition to our Cafe kitchen

For a long time I was hesitant to purchase this coffee maker due to reviews about the metallic finish flaking off. At some point I got over it and took a chance because we are happy with all of our other Cafe appliances. So far no quality issue with the finishes. We are very happy with the coffee it brews. We have been dedicated french press users for years and wanted to change our morning routine. The recommended water to ground coffee ratio is a little stronger than what I used in our french p...

Great quality and design

So far seem like a nice upgrade from previous Braun. Easy to set up very nicely packaged.

Same as above

Coffe stays hot for hours. No sludge in the bottom of the pot or in a cup.

Quit working after 90 days. Zero support.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The coffee was fine while it lasted, but it only lasted 3 months before it quit working. There is no error message, I fill it, start it, and it just sits there and makes no coffee. The manual directs you to the care section of the website. The care section of the website is a pdf of the manual sending you to the website. In other words, they provide as much care as coffee — exactly zero.
